Easy Paella

A perfect summer evening dinner with friends. Easy for a week night as well but still super fresh and tasty. Perfect with an ice-cold glass of white wine. 


Instructions

  1. 1

    Put the stock into a saucepan with 2 tbsp of the garlic paste and star anise and warm. Heat the oil and cook the onion for 5-8 mins until softened then add the remaining garlic, the smoked paprika, cayenne and saffron. Stir in the rice so it becomes well coated in spices


  2. 2

    Pour 1.5l of the stock into the pan, stir and bring to a simmer and cook for 15 mins. Stir in the tomatoes and parsley. Lay the fish and prawns on top and cover tightly with foil.


  3. 3

    Cook for 5 mins then add the contents of the mussels pack, stirring gently so not to break up the fish. Cover again with the foil and cook for 3-4 mins until the seafood is all cooked.
